Role: Sleep Training Specialist / Night Nanny
Location: South Kensington
Care for: B2
Start Date: ASAP
Duration: 3 months
Working Hours: 8:00pm - 8:00am
Accommodation: Live-out initially; live-in can be considered from the end of November
Salary: £25 – £30 gross per hour

A private family based in South Kensington are seeking an experienced Sleep Training Specialist / Night Nanny to support their 2-year-old son over an initial three-month period.
With a new baby arriving, the family are particularly keen to establish a secure and consistent nighttime routine for their toddler, encouraging greater independence at bedtime and helping him feel comfortable settling and sleeping without Mum.

The family would ideally like to find someone with strong toddler sleep-training experience who can take a hands-on approach overnight, rather than purely working in a consultancy capacity. They are, however, open to advice on the most suitable structure and would consider an experienced sleep specialist who can personally implement and oversee the new routine.

The working hours will be 8:00pm–8:00am, with responsibilities including:

• Taking the child to bed and establishing a calm, consistent nighttime routine.
• Supporting him in learning to settle independently and self-soothe without needing to sleep in Mum’s bed.
• Helping to manage any nighttime waking and providing reassurance in a way that supports the agreed sleep-training approach.
• Changing his nappy as required overnight — currently at least twice per night due to frequent leaking.
• Ensuring he receives as settled and restorative a night’s sleep as possible.
• Being up with him from approximately 6:15am and helping him get ready for school in the morning.

The family are looking for someone warm, patient and reassuring, with a strong understanding of toddler development, attachment and age-appropriate sleep training. Previous experience supporting toddlers through periods of change, particularly around the arrival of a new sibling, would be highly desirable.

This can initially be a live-out position. The family would also consider a live-in arrangement, although accommodation would not be available until the end of November.

Interviewing now for an ASAP start.
